Bent frame. How should I fix

How'd you become an expert

 

I wrecked that same 4Runner 3 times.

 

Man that's clean!

 

If you are serious about back woods pulling the frame. I recommend having a spotter and 4low jerking in small increments. Heat wouldn't hurt either....yours is really crumpled. Btw if you do this I would never tow anything,or sell this vehicle to someone without being upfront about the damage.

 

That's a great deal for a low mile Tacoma! You did good.

 

I would recommend just give the thing to a frame shop. That is a $400 pull tops around here. You can do the gusseting yourself once they get it straight.

 

has to be ACLB or DCSB they have the same frames

 

ACLBSBFTW

 

you can try both sides if you can get the heat at 2 places together.
Others are right though, that's a cheap pull if you find a shop that's not busy.

 

If I could find someone in Denver to do it for 400 I would fix it in a heartbeat.

 

Is this yours!

 

i wish. it was just the first pic that came up on goggle

 

Take the bed off before you torch it!

 

Haha I think everyone wishes.....

 

Not to me it doesn't. Bwahahahaha

 

Thanks for everyone's input. Results to come wish me luck

 

Making popcorn now...

 

I forgot to add how much patience will pay off. You can do it.

 

Cut it off, box it and weld in an integrated hitch?

 

This ^

But if you really want to try and hurt yourself or someone else this is how we used to do it before frame machines. We had floor pots and hydraulic rams so it was much easier. In your case you will need to find a way to chain the truck down tight by the frame so it wont move. Then weld a tab to the point that needs pulled on the truck. Attach a chain hoist to the point and to an immovable object. Pull hard, hammer the kink, and release. Repeat and adjust the pull point until it is straight. Use a torch to heat the kink as a last resort. Now square the frame to make sure the accident, or you while trying to repair, didn't screw things up elsewhere. Lots of failure points in that process. Just spend the money
